What is a core theme of the Federalist papers?

  1. Constitution should be ratified

  2. Constitution should be discarded

  3. Promotion of anarchy

  4. Establishment of a new religion

The correct answer is: Constitution should be ratified

The Federalist papers were a series of 85 essays, written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, advocating for the ratification of the United States Constitution. The core theme of these papers is to convince the public that the Constitution should be ratified, as it would provide a strong and effective government. Option B, discarding the Constitution, goes against the purpose of the Federalist papers. Option C, promoting anarchy, also goes against the goal of establishing a strong government. Option D, establishing a new religion, is not a central focus of the Federalist papers and goes beyond the scope of their intended purpose.
